No, there are question marks in many European languages, like French, German, Spanish and Italian. However, spoken languages, English included, don't use question marks, except when you transcribe them - they generally use intonation. One explanation for people not using question marks is that they are a little more difficult to type, especially on a smartphone. It is the same reason why some people write only in lower case.
